At the point when he had gone out, the elderly person got up in her turn and, while talking with the kids, continued the work hindered by their appearance.
Nonetheless, Dagobert enjoyed taken benefit of the rancher's flight to fall through the entryway and come and track down his companions.
He immediately circumvented the table, asking here for a stroke, there for a morsel of cake, then, at that point, he went to plunk down before the hearth where a decent fire consumed, high and splendid.
He had quite recently loosened up at full length on the ragged rug that framed before the hearth. As of now he felt his eyes shutting, when he saw between his half-shut eyelids a dark-striped feline. Eyes brimming with dread, fur shuddering, stomach near the floor, the creature was slipping towards the kitchen entryway. He most likely wanted to get away without drawing in the consideration of this obscure canine whose unexpected irruption had upset his rest.
Dagobert hopped up and, giving an incredible "woof" of satisfaction, surged towards the feline. The last option escaped into the lobby of the house, sought after by Dago who chose to disregard NANE's voice getting back to him back to her.
Tragically for the outlaw, of the multitude of entryways prompting the lobby, none was open with the exception of the one in the kitchen. Along the oak-framed walls, endured and cleaned by time, there could have been no other furniture than an old clock with a face enhanced with roses and periwinkles. Terrified, the feline hurried towards it and, climbing the high case, took shelter at the top at the exact second that Dagobert took his rush to go along with him. However, in his scurry, the canine hurled himself entirely into the point shaped by the clock case and the framing, and his front paws fiercely struck one of the oak boards. It was then that an uncommon occasion happened: the board vanished as though by enchantment, leaving a vast opening....
NANE who was running following right after Dagobert, to bring him back toDagobert, to take him back to submission, couldn't accept the obvious reality. She raced to the kitchen entryway.

Section IV
An interesting revelation.
At NANE's call, the rancher's better half and the three different kids ran up.

ANTHONY took just a single jump towards the opening.

DIANA raced to get the candle and had it lit
by JOHN . He dove it into the opening to enlighten the rear of the framing. The three different youngsters jarred behind him, attempting to investigate his shoulder.

In any case, to no end he opened his eyes wide, investigated the stones of the wall and analyzed the woodwork, he was unable to find anything fascinating. After a couple of seconds, he moved to one side and passed the candle to his sibling. Then, it was Claude and DIANA's move.
With respect to the rancher's significant other, she had unobtrusively gotten back to her kitchen, since she had some significant awareness of the presence of this versatile board for a really long time to be resentful about it.
Having wrapped up investigating the depression, the kids took a gander at one another, disheartened.

They hurried to the spot the rancher's better half had quite recently brought up. In the focal point of a square stone that appeared >>
The youngsters ran up the steps four all at once, Dagobert behind them. Ok! What a brilliant day! they shared with themselves, failing to remember in their excitement that the morning - had rather annoyingly started by the appearance of this repeater forced by their folks.
They before long found the cabinet. When the entryway was opened, each of them four got down on the ground to search for the indent the rancher's significant other had discussed.
"It is right there, I can feel it!" DIANA cried out of nowhere. Furthermore, she squeezed energetically into the little hole she had quite recently found under her hand. Goodness! her fingers were excessively powerless to set off the instrument that permitted the lower part of the cabinet to slide into the wall. JOHN needed to come to her guide.
A sharp commotion took the kids leap, and they saw the oak board before them clear out, then, at that point, vanish with a long squeak, exposing a subsequent cabinet. It was a kind of high, tight specialty where a man of normal form might have stood serenely.
shouted JOHN.
The individual concealing here was truly protected from all inquiry.
I might want to see with my own eyes, pronounced ANTHONY Secure me in there. It should be incredible tomfoolery! >>>>
No problem: when the youngster had fallen through the opening, his sibling shut the board and, break, nobody was seen any longer!

The kids alternated attempting to stow away, yet DIANA needed to concede that this game didn't amuse her much.
At last, the five companions returned down to the kitchen.

When they showed up at the "Ettes", Mrs. CHARLES drove Mr. Rolland to the room that was planned for him.

Auntie FAIRY couldn't resist the urge to giggle.
<<< So that appears to be so old to you? she said. In any case, it doesn't make any difference: regardless of whether he is youthful, I'm certain that Mr. KING will get on impeccably with you.
"We won't begin work until after Christmas, won't we, Auntie FAIRY ?" ANTHONY said ideally.
<<<< What a superb concealing spot!
